The more lights the better to see you with...lol......and prevent some dip running up on you.....

Damn right!
My additional rear/brake lights aren't as good as those, so you have inspired me to come up with an improvement on mine.

I had done this to a couple of other bikes in the past and they really do light up quite well. Custom Dynamics sells them and they have a lifetime warranty. The only problem with them is that they are originally made so that a 4-40 stud just is force threaded into the surround ring and only about 1-2mm is "threaded" in. That had me worried that vibration might make them walk out and I would lose the ring and the red cover for the light although the LED's are red. So, I drilled them through with a 1/16" drill bit and used panhead 4-40's with acorn nuts (blue Loctite). Some of you guys that live out in the country with lightly traveled roads might not need them but in a mess like SoCal they raise the level of view for a driver behind to see that you are stopping as the original taillight in my estimation is lacking. I also put them over the vintage white reflectors that I already had on the bike. I also installed hand deflectors to improve air flow and warm the hands. #1 running, #2 brake, #3 closeup/installation. Hope everyone is doing well!
